February 9th, 2003 Ice Trials

Cold (high of 18F) but sunny today. Rear-engine air-cooled cars were well-represented by a strong showing from the Corvair contingent (in addition to the usual plethora of Volkswagons, of course!) Fewer total entries for this event -- "only" about 40 entries today -- cut down the time waiting and allowed us to get in a 7th -- and even 8th -- timed run.

We do have some digital pictures from this event.

Here are the results:
